Slow Cooker Marry Me Chicken- a meal so good it’s worthy of a proposal. Tender chicken breasts are cooked in a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce. Such a simple and delicious slow cooker recipe. This recipe is very similar to Slow Cooker Tuscan Chicken‚ another slow cooker chicken recipe I really love. How To Serve Slow Cooker Marry Me Chicken Serve this rich and creamy chicken dish over pasta‚ rice‚ or mashed potatoes with a side of roasted vegetables or a garden salad with Creamy Italian Dressing for a tasty crowd-pleasing meal. Ingredients Needed Only simple ingredients are needed for this recipe and they marry together perfectly to create a perfectly scrumptious meal. Olive Oil Boneless‚ skinless chicken breasts– chicken thighs can be substituted but they take slightly longer to cook. Cornstarch– helps thicken the sauce. Chicken Broth Heavy Cream– you can use half-and-half to reduce the fat but the sauce won’t be as rich. Garlic Cloves Pepper‚ Italian seasoning‚ Paprika‚ Onion Powder‚ and Crushed Red Pepper Flakes Butter Sun-Dried Tomatoes– I use sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil‚ but you can use regular sun-dried tomatoes. Equipment Needed A 6-quart slow cooker is the perfect size for cooking this recipe. I use the Hamilton Beach 6-Quart Set &; Forget Programmable Slow Cooker. Cooking Time The chicken will take 4 to 5 hours on LOW or 2 1/2 to 3 hours on HIGH‚ but cooking time can vary greatly between slow cookers. Note: While you can cook this recipe on HIGH‚ I prefer to cook chicken breasts on LOW in the slow cooker. I find the HIGH setting can make the chicken a little tough. How To Thicken The Sauce If the sauce isn’t thick enough‚ transfer it to a saucepan and add a cornstarch slurry (2 teaspoons of cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon of cold water). Bring to a simmer for a few minutes. Recipe Tips You can skip browning the chicken and add it directly to the slow cooker. Browning the chicken just adds a little extra flavor. Leave the crushed red pepper flakes out if you don’t want any heat. Storage Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days and reheated in a microwave.

NotesBlot as much oil as you can off the sun-dried tomatoes. If you can’t find sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil‚ you can use regular sun-dried tomatoes. If sauce is not thick enough‚ transfer it to a saucepan. Stir together 1/2 tablespoon of cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water. Stir it into the sauce and bring to a boil for 1 minute. I recommend cooking chicken breasts on LOW in the slow cooker if possible. The HIGH easily overcooks them and makes them dry and tough.
